How is Columbia's Engineering program precised?
I wanted to know if Columbia's Engineering programme is considered a target school by employers such as the regular Columbia college econ grad? As I am interested in engineering but I am also considering a career in finance and banking.
Both are targets
so if I graduate with an electrical engineering degree I still have a good chance in investment banking.
As long as you maintain a good GPA you can get into investment banking from basically any major at Columbia. Your main concern is if you can maintain a 3.5+ in electrical engineering, which I consider to be the toughest engineering major.
what about financial engineering?
Depends on what you want to do. If you want a more quantitatively driven role in finance, then it's a good option. Otherwise, I don't think it's really necessary.
